Application filed April '7, 1906. Serial No- 310,489.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, QOLIN O. Bonn, a citizen of the United States, and aresident of Jersey City, county of Hudson, and State'of New Jersey, haveinvented certain new and useful Improvements in Shade-R eflectors forArtificial Lights, of which the following is a specification, referencebeing had therein to the accompanying drawings.

The primary object of my invention is to provide an improved shade forartificial lights with an adjustable reflector whereby the concentratedrays of the light may be thrown or guided to any desired point in aroom.

Heretofore shade reflectors have been constructed merely to throw thelight in one direction, as upon a table surface directly under it,consequently this arrangement will not fill the need of one employedupon close,vilne or accurate work, where a powerful light is required ata place probably not two foot square and at a pbint in the room otherthan the table surface, to

' accomplish this I cause an opening to be made in the side of the shadewith a small shade reflector connebted to it, whereby the concentratedrays of the large reflector are reflected in a manner that is obvious,and as the shade reflector is arranged to turn around in its socket thelight may be thrown to any part of the room and concentrated to cover avery small space.

In the drawing-Figure 1, represents a vertical section through myimproyed shade showing an ordinary gas burner in elevation. Fig. 2, is aplan view of the small reflector supported by a ring. Fig. 3, shows anopening in the shade reflector with a flange around it,

and the small reflector connected to it.

A represents a shade reflector adapted to be placed over dr around anartificial light and the same may be made in the form shown or otherwiseas may be .prelcrred. a and a are openings in the shadetop and bottom,as in an ordinary shade. a shows a reflecting surface within the globearranged to concentrate'and reflect the light through the side openingas hereinafter set forth.

B represents any ordinary burner or light over which the improved shadereflector can be used.

C is the meansemployed to support my improved globe or shade whereby thesame may be raised or lowered to suit the convenience of the user andupon which the shade may turn that the small opening may face any partof the room.

a is a small opening made in the side of the shade reflector A, throughwhich the reflected light is directed or thrown by surface 0, theopening may be made in the place shown or otherwise as may be preferred,

D is a band I employ to attach the small shade reflector to the largeshade reflector A, and the same may be located at the place shown inFig. 1, or it may be fastened at the side.

E is a small shade mentioned above which I fasten over or above smallopening a, in such a manner as to may be employed to attach band D in amanner that is obvious.

In connection with my improved shade propose to employ a peculiarlyconstructed bracket or shade support the manipulation of which willelevate or lower the shade.

0 represents one or more upwardly extending arms which overlaps at c andacts as a rest or support for the shade in a manner that is obvious.

c is an ordinary screw employed to secure the shade.

0 represents slots made in arms 0 whichallows the same to be raised orlowered.

c is the thumb screw that holds the shade at any desired ele'vation.

Applicant is aware ,that an opening in the side of lantern" globes witha lens inserted therein is not a new feature, consequently the presentinvention is not intended, neither is it constructed to be employed inrelation to lanterns or the like, but adapted to be used exclusively inrelation to table lamps, gas or electric ligl1ts. v

It will be noted that I do not-limit myself to the details ofconstruction shown since they may vary and the essentials of theinvention still be employed.

Having thus described my'invention what I claim and desire to secure byLetters Patent, is-

In combination w.th a shade reflectorfor gas or electric lights, anopening in the side of said shade, a magnifying lens adapted to entersaid opening, :1 small shade refiector attached over said openings, andmeans to fasten the 3mm] slmde to the substantially as and for the ppose set forth.

In testimony whereof I aifix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
